Happy What’s On Your Workspace Wednesday to you! This week, I realized I was low on card essentials, so I decided to start building my stash up – starting with a hand-stamped, spring-themed birthday card!
Today’s card was fun to make. I rounded up a bunch of birthday sentiment stamps – inked them up in pretty spring pastel colors – created custom ribbon using a few coordinating paper strips – then added a pretty spring flower (which I distressed a tad) and a complementary colored brad to complete the look!
The nice thing about this card is that you can easily adapt it to whatever stamps you have on hand and whatever occasion you need. You can also distress and add a sentiment to your envelope too!
Do you have a special project you’d love to share? Join me for Inspire Me Monday! The party is open all week and a treasure trove of inspiration awaits you!

What a beautiful tribute for Pink Saturday’s birthday!
I am a little late for my PS round but I wouldn’t want to miss it. Here’s my My PINK
Have a blessed Sunday!
That’s a really nice card. I’m sure the recipient will enjoy receiving it. Nowadays many people send e-cards instead of physical card.
Wow! Serious card makers! I play around with it, but mine are just simplistic…
a lovely card! As someone said, it DOES look like a present!
I will try this card!!
You are just incredibly creative.
